Possum Kingdom Lake Hike and Bike Trails

A portion of the Hike & Bike Trail System has been closed as a result of recent wildfire activity. A portion of the system’s Phase 3, bordered by FM 2951, Frontier Unit Rd, Bug Beach Rd and Hamilton Drive, is unavailable until further notice. Hikers who would like to enjoy the trails on the west end of the peninsula may access trailheads near Sandy Beach, Burma Road or Frontier Unit Rd. moving west. For information, please call 940-779-2321.

The Hike and Bike Trails at Possum Kingdom Lake crisscross the lake's central peninsula, connecting public areas with 16 miles of paths.

Twelve trailheads are located at intervals allowing hikers to enjoy as much or as little of the trail system as they please. Parking, restrooms, picnic, camping, and swimming areas are available throughout the system. Signage maps posted on the trail are color-coded, identifying "you are here" notations. Water fountains and restrooms have been installed at various trailheads.

The trails also feature rest areas with cedar benches as well as information displays about history, geology and animals of the area. The trail system was made possible by the BRA through grants from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Click here for a printable map of the trails.
